Guys , we are talking about nothing

This is the truest statement you've ever made. Congrats on becoming self-aware. Can't believe this project is still paying you to spam one liners for them though. They must have spent far more on your bumping service than the amount of BTC they've raised.

Wow! Polo clipped 16% from every btc lending account because of a margin loss in some altcoin.
https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/bxkd6o/poloniex_btc_margin_lending_pool_losses/

That's plain nuts. I don't know how people could keep using Poloniex after that. Clams has always been a Grade B Shitcoin. Its biggest claim to fame is when John Oliver mocked it because of its name one time in a segment about cryptocurrencies.

Obviously they are betting they can get away with it legally-speaking, but I definitely wouldn't revisit them after this.

iasenko, is this log private, or another user can access it in some way?
This log is private. Only you can see your logs. Without logging in you can not see any log. Try it.

I am all over the Europe and America :-P

Yeah man I gotta say that's a bit suspicious unless you are using tor. If you aren't it's time to change your password and possibly email address.

Bitcoin scales, since it's inception.

BTC isn't, since it's 2017 hard fork.

K. That's great and all. What does any of that have to do with Craig Wright being a demonstrable fraud? That's what this thread is about, not the merits of different block sizes.
7345  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: June 06, 2019, 10:14:14 AM
Don't know if you knew this or not but the BTC is the same character as the Thai bhat (that's where it comes from) -- Thai being the squiggly language on the packaging.

hehe, oops. Never seen the Thai bhat symbol in use anywhere.

I just checked out your account... You were around during the time of Satoshi, early miner, caught up in the BFL debacle, #3 most active member... very impressive! Do you have any particular insights you could share about the nature of satoshi, as you "knew" him from his forum posts? Like anything you found out of the ordinary, or that hasn't been discussed before? I'm always interested to learn more about him (her/them).

The cost to set up a DarkCoin masternode was 1,5 mil at the ATH. It's about 10x less now, but still... I guess that's where they got their idea from. Wink
I remember trading DRK when it was about $0.60 and selling it at $1.80 and feeling like a genius. Should have accumulated the 1,000 necessary for node running...

DarkCoin became DASH s**tcoin, right?

Yep, that's the one. For the sake of this thread, every coin that's not bitcoin is a shitcoin.* I still have 62 Dash sitting in a wallet I lost the private key to after my laptop got stolen. Yes, I made a backup of the private key. Unfortunately, that backup was on a USB stick in the case of the laptop, which was also stolen.  Roll Eyes

*This also includes all forks that are not BTC

Here's a snippet from 2 of the forum's biggest trolls having a conversation with each other (they've been arguing with each other about the subject [Flat Earth] for 4+ years now):

Since the FE stuff is designed for people who are partially brain dead, who cares if it goes on? Keeps people's focus off the truly evil things, like 5G and vaccines.

Cool

It's what you get when a troll trolls a troll...

Kudos to the artist that slipped in this little easter egg. That's one smart puppy!

7348  Other / Meta / Re: Lightning Network board on: June 06, 2019, 07:20:35 AM
To be honest I think this is going a bit too far... For example, segwit is about the same sort of thing as ln and it doesn't make sense to make a section for either. However putting it in alternate wallet software might be an idea if deemed necessary.
This is wrong, they aren't comparable at this point. LN has a lot of features that justify this, and there's even more to come.

I agree, because SegWit is an inherent part of the Bitcoin Core code and LN is a separate network.

All the more reason to give Lightning its own board. I think this may actually help make it easier to foster more innovation in (or adoption of) LN, if its easier to find and isolate information pertaining to it.
7349  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: DDKOIN blacklist my account after i buyed 19 DDK on: June 06, 2019, 07:07:53 AM
As you can see OP, the accusation exists since September 27, 2018. As wrote above "always do research before investing in anything".  I guess you learned a small lesson here.

You would hope he learned something but apparently he's been caught up in Ponzis for over 5 years now, either investing in or managing them. So I don't think he learned anything. I would call this loss "karma."

Edit: just saw this gem in his personal text:

Quote
Buy this account on March-2019. New Owner here!!

In that case he is appropriating karma from the account's previous owner. He probably should have read through a few of the old owner's comments before making an investment.

Is TA pure bullshit? Theres goofey names of signals on both sides claiming crash and rise always.

Yes, yes it is, given the fact that at any point in time, two TA "experts" can look at the same chart and come to exact opposite conclusions (and the price is also just as likely to head in a 3rd direction). It's all posturing: milking the times you are right for the most you can and being able to deflect in the event that your call is wrong.

Pretty sad that a project that had enough money to shell out to Roger Ver to hire him as an advisor would resort to hiring such a low-grade thread bumping service to spam their topic for them.

Does anybody have any doubt about what's going on here? This project hired a thread bumping service make it appear that there is genuine activity in this thread and interest in this project. Without them, it would be pretty dead. Just another exchange when there's already 100+ to choose from.

I can't say this project is a scam per se, but the people who usually employ this type of service are scammers. Potential investors be warned.

Hi guys, hows it hangin'?

Is CSW getting messages deleted from the forum? I got PM´s that many of my posts where I used his name were deleted, any particular reason?

No, my BSV scam accusation thread where I've called him a fraud several times is going strong, haven't had any comments deleted from it thus far.

I've found that there's usually a logical, non-conspiratorial reason why my comments get deleted. Double-posting is a big no-no (outside of the WO thread), going off-topic is the #2 reason. Can you post us an example of a comment that was deleted and the thread that it was in?

K jefe. Have it your way.

I've known from early on your mind won't be changed about anything, so I won't try.

Don't say we didn't warn you.

Why on Earth do you think Gavin Anderson, the person Satoshi passed the project on to would not understand this? Call us all ignorant and in bad faith as you are clearly god.

Here were Gavin Andresen's last words on the issue (he's since distanced himself from it entirely), from his blog:

Quote
I think there are two possibilities.

Either he was Satoshi, but really wants the world to think he isn’t, so he created an impossible-to-untangle web of truths, half-truths and lies. And ruined his reputation in the process.

If he was Satoshi, we should respect his wish to remain anonymous, and ignore him.

(except he's clearly trying his hardest to convince people he is Satoshi, so this possibility is out)

Quote
The other possibility is he is a master scammer/fraudster who managed to trick some pretty smart people over a period of several years.

In which case everybody except the victims of his fraud and law enforcement working on behalf of those victims should ignore him.


So, either he was or he wasn’t. In either case, we should ignore him. I regret ever getting involved in the “who was Satoshi” game, and am going to spend my time on more fun and productive pursuits.

This whole forum is ran by backwards broke ex scammers who are slowly watching their BTC fortune die.

You should probably go hang out in the Bitcoin SV forum then. Didn't you announce your departure like 3 pages ago?

Adios muchacho.

7356  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Weird emails and pms about a paypal transaction I never made on: June 05, 2019, 09:48:12 AM
Apparently on June 1st (I definitely wasn't in Stockholm).



The Stockholm IP address belongs to the Proton VPN service, which AFAIK is free and anybody around the world can use it. This means it mixes in the good users from the bad, and there's no way to use the IP information as a clue to identify where the hacker is located.

But then why bother post the second screenshot that shows the "refund"?

That was iChanger who took and posted the screenshot. It seems like the scammer suddenly wanted to take the first email address out of the equation.

There's no harm in iChanger reporting fraudulent activity on all 3 of the email addresses he received to PayPal.

He also threatened he could do a "chargeback" to his credit card in one of the Telegram screenshots. He should probably consider doing this (if possible) at the risk of damaging his PayPal account standing.



iChanger can also file a fraud report with their bank if they can't chargeback to their credit card (sounds like they used a credit card tho).

Shelby sez:

And you really think that what is coming they are going to let you get away with that? Of course not.

Bitcoin is not going to be a currency, only a store-of-value for the uber wealthy. Any BTC transactions in the past will become suspect without proof of source of funds. Trying to hide it as payments into your fake businesses is going to be easy enough to prove. The chain analysis, meta data, etc.. They’ll track it down and find a sufficient pattern to claw everything back and throw you in prison for the rest of your life.

I've used it as a currency for several years already. Its already a currency according to the definition of the word. I've never had one problem with doing so legally speaking. Anonymint's most recent ramblings just sound like more conspiracy theory doomsday trollmongering to me.

He always argues that some terrible event is going to occur at some unspecified time in the future.  You can't empirically prove anything one way or the other until it doesn't happen.  And it never does.  But by the time it was supposed to have happened, Anonymint has already moved on to "imminent" catastrophe #573853 and everyone has already forgotten about whatever alarmist flailing he was doing before.  Complete and utter headcase.  

He clearly likes the attention and the odd occasions some person gets the mistaken impression that he's actually smart.  When, in truth, it's just an overactive imagination, a strong vocabulary and a flair for the dramatic.  Don't be taken in by it.

If we want to hold tokens on your exchange, should we have some dividents for it?
If you purchase at Presale or ICO and hold more than 12500 AML, you will be eligible for dividends.
Dividends allocate 5% of our profits twice a year depending on AML ownership rate.
What is the cost of 12500 AML during PreSale? Will dividend payments be made in cryptocurrency? If so, which one?
The 12500 AML is available for $ 1000.
Payment of dividends is paid by BTC.

I strongly advise against investing in this project. While I cannot point to specific evidence that they are a scam, the fact that they hired a bumping service to bump their thread for them is consistent with scammer-like behavior. There are already a hundred exchanges for you to choose from. The market is already oversaturated with exchanges. There is nothing that suggests this project isn't simply another cashgrab and will result in an unfinished project or a zero-volume exchange.

... but .. but Craig Wright is Satoshi... even Gavin Andresen confirmed that.. like he singed a message from a the genesis block addy in front of him /s

Nutildah literally believes he’s greater than Gavin Anderson.

I don't, actually. I simply wonder why Craig can't do the same thing for the general public. If he's Satoshi, it would be incredibly easy to do so. Furthermore, why couldn't he let Gavin verify the signature on his own computer? Even furthermore, if keys don't constitute proof of ownership, like your camp has been saying since Craig bungled his last signature attempt, why did he bother "doing so" for Gavin in the first place?
